There may be two issues here. The first one, and IIRC, it is already in
the BTS, is that nearby sites doesn't use the name but the IP address,
which makes it useless with virtual hosting. The second one is that
the ipv6 url isn't supported, though I wonder if a
http://fe80:x:x:x:x:x:x:x:80/ url is actually valid (because of the
colons)
